You don't have to navigate this alone.

If you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, or stress, you've already taken the first step by searching for help. I'm here to make the next step easy.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience helping adults break free from patterns that no longer serve them. My primary modality is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) an evidence based therapy proven to help the brain process and heal from traumatic experiences, even when traditional talk therapy hasn't worked.

Hi, I'm Dr. V (she/her), a Chicanx therapist and relationship anarchist with 17 years of experience. I work with adults who are navigating identity, relationships, and the weight of living inside systems that weren't built for them. Much of my work is with LGBTQIA+ and trans clients, people exploring their cultural and ethnic identity, and folks practicing polyamory, relationship anarchy, and other forms of non-monogamy. You won't have to explain or defend who you are or how you love here. We start from where you actually are.
